March 24th, 2013 - Race #10

RecapThe last race of the season found everyone enjoying a beautiful sunny day with gusty, variable winds. The Women went first, with Bryn Black leading the way -- thanks to some excellent adjustments made while shooting, she recorded the fastest Women's time of the day and the best shooting percentage of the day at 76%. The Men were split into two heats, with bibs 1-9 and 10-18. Chris Fletcher scored the best performance of the day, felling 100% of his targets and recording the fastest time.

After the race came the end of year celebration in the sun! This year, Michael Black volunteered as grillmaster as everyone enjoyed a barbecue just downhill from the range. Pam scored the big prize - a vial of fluoro valued at $170 from Nordic Ultratune.
